Master Evins said there would be a time(s) when you are going to want to quit, to give up on the journey to achieving your next belt. I'm there. I practice nightly, but draw a blank on the mat. I have mentor sessions with other candidates, and they know so much more than I do. I get easily frustrated and try to hide my teary eyes, laugh off my mistakes, but I'm so far behind. I don't even have a curriculum to follow. If my belt wasn't different from everyone else's, this would be my last entry.....
